When we have a craving for Japanese food that's not all dynamite rolls and tempura, we head to Manpuku.
It's a small-ish Japanese restaurant in the OCAD area that serves a variety of Japanese fast food for a very reasonable price.
We ordered the beef niku udon ($5.95) and the curry udon ($6.95) and both were bowl fulls of noodle and brothy goodness. Extremely satisfying, not to mention at a thrify price.
When we asked about dessert, the waitress said "We have black sesame ice cream". OH MY GOD, YES!!!
We ordered 2 portions but I think 1 order would have been enough to share between two people because each order comes with 2 scoops. This is not your piddly one small scoop of ice cream (unlike Sushi on Bloor).
Nevertheless, I had managed to polish mine off. I woud go back just for the ice cream. It's so unique and tasted exactly like the filling inside those sesame balls at dim sum, but more creamy and cold. At $3.25/serving, it was a bargain.
